Extending & Retracting Slide Rooms; Manual Override - Hwh - Holiday Rambler Imperial 2008 Owner's Manual

EQUIPMENT — 5
Guidelines to ensure long life of slide system:
Inspect roof of the slide for debris such
as pine needles, dirt, leaves, sticks,
etc. Debris left on the top may cause
damage to the seals during retraction.
If debris is present, wash with soap and
water, then rinse.
When the room is out, inspect the wipe
seal for dirt or other foreign material and
for tears.
If the slide room leaks, fully retract the
room. If necessary, tape exterior opening
closed with duct tape until repairs to the
motorhome can be completed.
CAUTION:
Firmly latch all cabinet doors adjacent
to the slide before extending or
retracting the rooms. Damage to doors
or the fascia may occur.
NOTE:
Dirt and grit trapped under the slide
room could result in damage to the
floor. If the motorhome has a ceramic
tile floor, ensure the floor is clean
before retracting the slide room.
Trapped dirt or grit under the slide
room can scratch the floor surface.
Never move the motorhome with the
slide room extended.
NOTE:
DO NOT use petroleum based products
on the slide seal. Petroleum based
products can damage the paint and will
cause premature aging of the rubber seal.
